This Impressive Work By Haldar Seems To Celebrated Poetry And Prose Of Indian Culture And Beauty. He Depicts Left Profile View Of A Seated Woman Under A Tree, Her Flowing Colourful Garment And Jewelry Similar To Banjara Woman. The Setting Is That Of Idyllic Contemplation That Draws Its Spectators Into A Meditative Silence.
Artist Has Interestingly Used The Pictorial Space With Mild Suggestion Of Perspective Laid Out By The Gradually Diminishing Intensity Of Colour From Forefront Of The Image To The Background With A Stunning Command Of Wash Techniques. The Placing Of The Bright Ochre Coloured Odhini Around The Figure Further Complements To The Lyrical Quality Of The Work.
Provenance : Collection of a Distinguished Collector, Collection built in Calcutta between 1960-1990
